US and the upcoming lunar eclipse



Perseus and Andromeda by Giorgio Vasari


Astrologers have long recognized that eclipses tend to bring about endings and new beginnings. They offer a time to resynchronize our selves with the ever-changing cosmic currents supporting our evolutionary progression in consciousness. The nature of the effect that eclipses have is a function of the star alignments and other aspecting planets occurring at the time of the eclipse. While an eclipse is worldwide in scope, its effect is more prominently felt at places where it aligns with the horizon or meridian.

The upcoming Lunar Eclipse of July 5 not only aligns with the US Sibly radix Sun [13cn] but forms a T-square implying that it has an important effect on the US. What then is the nature of this influence? The apex of a T-Square is the focal point. This is the point that is the most critical placement of the T-square. Here the apex is the Ascendant [12ar47] which is conjunct the stars Alderamin [13ar] alpha (α) Cepheus and Alpheratz alpha (α) Andromeda [14ar35].  The Ascendant in a mundane chart refers to the general public. To understand what follows, readers are urged to read Nick Fiorenza’s article Andromeda, Perseus, & The Royal Family [1].

The stars of Andromeda delineate the struggle for freedom from the collective and tormenting forces of the psycho-emotional human world, to claim our true freedom. Negatively, Alpheratz can also express as being caught in the power plays created by the arrogance or denials of others often manifesting as elaborate emotional dramatics  but in broader terms it refers to the bondage, suppression and manipulation of humanity's prosperous future through the control of financial resources by the dominant patriarchal-driven bureaucracies.

Alpha (α) Cepheus, Alderamin, is a star marking the right shoulder of the King. Alderamin may submit to manipulative forces rather than stand up for those unjustly held in bondage, even when it is his responsibility to do so. It  can express as a flippant and indecisive attitude to do anything about them. But when positive, Alderamin impels impartial and emotionally clearheaded authoritative action to address entrapping situations in a way that provides resolution. Alderamin ultimately provides aid or solution, but often after what may seem like an initial aloofness. Alpheratz and Alderamin amalgamate to form a fortunate outcome, but sometimes drawn out through the emotional Piscean waters, and a long period of unwillingness or simple naïveté [2].

With Mercury station retrograde at [14cn] has triggered the eclipse Sun [13cn].

The symbolism of the Andromeda story as it applies to the  current situation in the US is fairly clear. No further commentary is required.  

Further insight is obtained from the precession corrected Sibly solar return. Here we have:

Sun =Pluto-Hades = Cupido-Vulcanus

The interpretation of these midpoints are as under:

Pressure (Vulcanus) to unify as a “family” (here nation) [Cupido] results in a decline [Hades] following a showdown, upheaval or outburst [Pluto].

The sense of unity as a nation [Cupido] goes through a radical change [Pluto].

To recognize the power [Pluto] of the criminal element or masses [Hades].

Instances where mistreatment [Hades] has become a motivation for vindictive action [Pluto].
